The National Testing Agency (NTA) has announced that candidates for the CUET UG 2026 exam can request changes to their exam city and state until 11:50 PM on May 7, 2026. This decision comes after logistical challenges led the NTA to retract its earlier statement allowing changes to the exam date and shift. The CUET UG 2026 will be conducted from May 11 to May 31, 2026, with a total of 15,68,866 candidates registered, making it one of the largest computer-based tests globally. Candidates wishing to change their exam details must do so through the official CUET UG website, following a specific procedure. The re-allotment process is subject to availability and will be conducted on a first-come, first-served basis. Those who do not request changes within the deadline will have to take the exam in their originally allotted city, date, and shift.
